Review on ๐ŸŒง๏ธ Alpine North Women's Drawstring Raincoat: Stylish and Practical Outerwear for Women's Clothing by Jamie Miller

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Stylish, practical and functional

I was looking for a really great raincoat that would be suitable for everyday work and wouldn't break the bank. When I discovered this at Revain, I knew I had finally landed in the dirt! So I ordered right away! Since I'm 5'8', 175 pounds and mostly shift my weight to my chest and waist, I bought the XL size. The Alpine North Women's XL Drawstring Raincoat fits me perfectly. Its elastic drawstring at the waist. Rather than having the waist sit just above the pelvic bones, the drawstring conforms to the natural waist, which is significantly more flattering. The tension switch on the drawstring works very well and is simple, making adding a bulky sweater as easy as pushing a button. The fabric is breathable, has some give (or stretch) and is waterproof. The sleeves and inserts under the shoulders at the front and back have harmless reflective piping. There are pockets: four on the outside, two with zippers, and two with flaps and snaps (great for my wallet and my gamer! Just kidding about the gamer!). And two inside, one with velcro and one without. The hood is adjustable, as are the cuffs. Two-way front zipper, easy to use; I always close and release smoothly, bottom to top and back. Even the hem of the coat is great. The longest point of the "curved" hem is about 2 inches above my knees, front and back. And last but not least the lining; The lining is silky soft, allowing me to fit inside the jacket. I've never had to deal with my clothes sticking to the lining of this jacket. I bought this jacket in navy which is lovely and I love it so much I was tempted to buy another in platinum.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
